From the album Vacation (1982)
“Get Up & Go” by The Go-Go's appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 1982. It was first released in 1982 on the album Vacation. Its best result is #96 on the KROQ Top 106.7 Songs of 1982. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #136 alternative song of 1982.
"Get Up & Go" comes off Vacation, the second Go-Go's album, released on I.R.S. in 1982. Charlotte Caffey wrote the music and shared the lyric with Jane Wiedlin, who by then was taking a bigger interest in songwriting.
The sessions were hampered by drug addiction within most of the lineup and by growing discord between Caffey, the band's songwriter and lead guitarist, singer Belinda Carlisle and Wiedlin, problems that would eventually end the band after their third album, Talk Show, sold poorly.
